Four (4) participant actors will apply to work with Matt Young, a LGBTQIA+ actor and acting coach, and founder of Tukuna Acting Club, established in Suva, Fiji in 2016. Observers will have the opportunity to watch their fellow actors work, and will have the opportunity to ask questions of the instructor at the end of the class, prioritising questions from participants.
